SUMMER ADVICE TO BUSINESS

In the summer months thieves use the opportunity to take advantage of business and their employees who are enjoying the fine weather. Doors and windows get left open, goods are left outside and the fire risk increases.

Please complete this checklist to minimise the risk from walk in thefts.

I have a closing up procedure at my business to ensure that all doors and windows are closed and locked at night.
